Well, I assume LSS will move to FA when the marine codex comes out.

It actually used to be, before it became a dedicated transport. Presumably it'll be both.

Just like Rhinos, Razorbacks, and Drop Pods being FA in SW/BA, it won't make a difference.

It will because now you can put BA scouts in a LSS if you can spare an allied FA slot. Also, if SM get a decent formation with lots of FA slots...

Are you telling me to do a red-armored "White Scars" army allied with my Blood Angels with a red-armored "White Scars" Land Speeder Storm to cart my Scouts around in? And then run some red-armored "White Scars" bikers led by Captain Khanael (BA characters love that AE letter combination). Maybe a red-armored "White Scars" Stormtalon Gunship. Because if that is what you are saying...

Maybe?

I might also be suggesting that my successor chapter of unknown founding might secretly be a BA successor instead of a codex marine one. We'll find out in a few days. (Either that or I need to paint some scouts red... you know, so they go faster.)

So the best ways to run scouts with is Mantis Warriors, Blood Angels or White Scars with bolt pistol & cc weapon then?

Sentinels of Terra are also a good way to run bolter scouts. Twinlinked at half range is pretty good.

However I would hold off for 9 more days and see what happens with the new space marine book.
